具体描述
This is the true story of the rape and murder of Faith Hathaway by Robert Lee Willie and Joe Vaccaro. Detective Mike Varnado provides a vivid eyewitness account of the investigation into her murder. Varnado was only twenty-five when he discovered Faith Hathaway's body. Finding her killers and bringing them to justice has been one of the most important endeavours of his life. But for Varnado, Faith's family, and the citizens of their quiet Louisiana community, the nightmare did not end with the capture and conviction of the murderers. While on Angola's death row, Robert Lee Willie was counselled by Senator Helen Prejean, who wrote about him in her best-selling book, Dead Man Walking. He also served as the primary model for the character played by Sean Penn in the Academy Award-winning film version of 'Dead Man Walking'. As Willie and his story achieved world-wide notoriety, Faith Hathaway, her short life, and her brutal death were almost forgotten by everyone but those closest to her. Victims of 'Dead Man Walking' reminds readers of an aspect of the death-penalty debate that is too often forgotten -- the innocent victim of crime, the victim's family, and the police officers, lawyers, judges, and ordinary citizens called upon to perform difficult but necessary roles in the pursuit of justice.
